The main strength of the differential association theory is that it showed that crime was not just a
product of ___ but that it could occur in all settings.
Answer: The correct answer is 2
Refer: CMY3701 Study Guide, pg. 102
Reasoning: “The main strength of the theory of differential association, according to Jones
(2001:147), is that it showed that crime was not just a product of poverty, but that it
could occur in all settings, ranging from slum areas to large business operations.”
Question 2
Discounting the existence of threatening impulses is called ___.
Answer: The correct answer is 2
Refer: CMY3701 Study Guide, pg. 22
Reasoning: “DENIAL is simply discounting the existence of threatening impulses. For example, a
person with homosexual tendencies may vehemently deny ever feeling any physical
attraction to a person of the same sex (Cassel & Bernstein, 2007:82).”
Question 3
Becker (1963) is of the opinion that deviant behaviour is a social product created by:
1) Interactionism
2) Society
3) Labelling
4) Determinism
Answer: The correct answer is 2
Refer: CMY3701 Study Guide, pg. 124
Reasoning: “The primary focus of Becker's study was to explain how a person is labelled as an
outsider. Deviant behaviour, according to Becker, is a social product created by
society. Whether a juvenile is therefore labelled as deviant will depend on the
reaction of other people to the act, and not on the nature of the activity itself.”
